Absolutely petrovic. Hasn't done anything wrong, no mistakes, and has made some crucial saves. Also commands his box well and the defense look confident in him as well. No errant or stupid passes out to the opposition and his distribution has been decent. No reason to upset the apple cart when Sanchez is back fit. Not like he was entirely convincing pre injury

Luke, I think it’s simple, possession, is nine tenths of the law. With Petrovic being solid, making good saves and 50% clean sheets it shouldn’t be a discussion. If he had been struggling in anyway, then that might be a different discussion. If it’s not broken don’t try and fix it

Best goalkeeper situation for years and certainly petrovic has earns a shot as number 1 but Kepa we don’t want him to come back as the club has moved on Real have dropped him to 3rd choice anyway

I’m just happy we have 2 decent goalkeepers to choose from! And when Kepa comes back in the summer ( as that where it seems to be heading) we will have a goalie glut 😂

Petrovic for me atm as number 1.

He needs to improve at corners & crosses.

Overall im very pleased with him, bought for a bargain £11.5 million!..

Let's not forget what Brad Friedal said about Petrovic as well.

" Once he gets his chance, he WILL be Chelseas number 1"

Other than the Rice mistake, Sanchez has performed well.

His playing out from the back, gives me a heart attack at times.

But... overall he has done well.

And lets not forget, BOTH are a massive upgrade on Kepa.

How many long distance goals have we conceded this year?

I rest my case 🙂

I love how Sanchez commands the box and claims crosses well but his footwork has given me far to many palpitations. I haven’t seen Petrovic put a foot wrong but it’s a small amount of game and a lot to of weak opposition to be making a definitive choice as yet.
